A Never Ending

As the dust dissipates the battle cries will still be heard while the scars remain covered the memories still plague no war is forgotten, time does not erased the loss nor does the wounded heal from time alone. Suddenly awoken by the stirs of sights or sounds fear scrapes the silence from the night sleep to be brought back to the grounds where men had fallen feeling that they had never left where the embers still burn.
